nvidia calls it SLI (Scalable Link Interface)when two same nvidia GPU's are interconnected to get superior performance,most people do that while gaming on dual monitors.Radeon calls it crossfire.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalable_Link_Interface)
a 650-700W would be enough for the a single gtx770 but i will give both the links for a 650W and a 750W(to be future proofed)like this:
